This spacious four-bedroom ranch home and guesthouse is one of Montecito's unique properties and is a rare combination of warmth and sophistication. The gated one-story home is reminiscent of California's classic citrus ranches and is located among sweeping old oaks in the heart of Montecito. There are two sizable outdoor patios with fireplaces for family enjoyment or entertaining and a sizable backyard. A stone path borders the back patio and is fringed by Camellias, an herb garden, raised vegetable beds, roses, citrus, apple and fig trees, and leads to a charming one bedroom, one bath guest cottage that features vaulted ceilings throughout and a large sitting room with fireplace.

The main house features four bedrooms, 3.5 baths, free form pool, fantastic gathering spaces, reading/music room, a gourmet kitchen, and a children's playhouse. Additional features include vaulted ceilings, French doors and windows that stream light and afford different views of the property. The kitchen is a cook's kitchen with Viking & Sub-Zero appliances, double ranges, honed granite counter tops and top of the line small appliances.

The guesthouse has a separate entrance and parking.

Despite its spaciousness, there is a cozy ambiance throughout the home and the outdoor living and dining patios. In short, it is the quintessential cottage home updated and expanded for the indoor-outdoor lifestyle that is so uniquely California.
